Unfortunately, the sound stopped work. Sound is important in order to hear the word. I hope this issue is resolved ASAP. ### 2/5 — We cannot access all the lists *2023-11-15* I thought I paid for the full lists, but all that we can open is list one. ### 4/5 — Helped my struggling reader *2023-03-01, version 3.0* 4 stars because it’s slow…..maybe an update to adjust speed of talking for the adhd brain kids who get bored easily? (We speed up YouTube videos😅) Other than that it’s a great app for us! My kids love that there is comprehension, spelling, matching, and crossword puzzles. The struggling reader feels confident in reading now, and we’ve been working for a long time on reading. Thanks for these awesome educational apps! ### 3/5 — I payed for this app twice ❓❓❓❓‼️‼️‼️ *2023-02-04* However I do love this app I do think that it is great for learning ### 3/5 — Love this app but.... *2020-10-13* This app was great for my twins they loved playing it but two days after buying the full version for the both of them the app completely stopped working ### 2/5 — Great app but no sound *2020-04-22* My daughter loved this app so we bought the full version but haven’t been able to get the sound to work ever since. I’ve tried re-downloading the app several times with no success ### 2/5 — Sound *2020-04-01, version 2.0* The sound does not work. It works on my kids tablet, but not my phone. It’s a great app ### 2/5 — No Sound *2020-03-22, version 2.0* Can you assist there is no sound on the app? ### 3/5 — Sound isn’t working *2019-11-20, version 2.0* The sound doesn’t work ### 4/5 — Love *2019-09-14, version 2.0* I love the app but I’m having a problem with the volume.. other than that it’s the best ### 4/5 — Helpful Company, Son Loves App *2019-06-23* My 5 year old loved the lite version of the app so we purchased the full app. We then had an issue of the sound not working. I contacted the creator of the app through email and they troubleshot the issue with me. Through several emails we were able to get the sound working again. Thank you for all the help! My son loves practicing his sight words with it. ### 3/5 — Awesome app if only the sound worked *2019-06-12* I love this app. It is just the best for sight words but the sound keeps not working so I have to re-load the app every time we use it to get the sound. ### 1/5 — Bought app but no access *2018-12-04* Bought the full app but all the levels are still locked. App support link does not work. ### 2/5 — Doesn’t work *2018-10-25* I love this app for my kid so I bought the full version but it still doesn’t go past level one. Now I don’t know what to do about getting my money back. ### 2/5 — Volume is not working *2018-10-17, version 2.0* I’m guessing there was an update and now the volume doesn’t not work. Please fix!! ### 1/5 — Sound doesn’t work *2018-05-08* Bought the full version and the sound doesn’t work my phone is turned all the way up and the sound button on the app won’t even open up to turn it on can’t get a hold of the developer to get my money back ### 4/5 — Great app *2018-04-22* This is a great app for review. I would love to see the ability to see percentages once a level is complete or once a screen is complete. How many questions were answered correctly the first time asked? The second time? I just love to see the progress reports for my littles. ### 1/5 — Sound Not Working *2017-08-26, version 2.0* I loved this app so much I bought the paid version. But, as of today, the sound isn't working! ### 3/5 — Age appropriate *2016-09-28* I don't think the app is all that bad. I like the different forms of activities within the app to allow the children to learn as well as interact different areas of the brain. However, one option I would love and I'm sure other parents/teachers too is the ability to pick words for the week to coincide with what the student is learning through their class. Perhaps the narration be a little more peppy vs monotone ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — No access *2020-02-15* I bought the full version but all levels are locked. Support link still won’t work a year after last review. I will be contacting Apple for a refund. ### 1/5 — No sound *2020-01-10, version 2.0* No sound. iPad is not on mute ### 1/5 — Sound does not work *2019-12-29* The sound does not work. After purchasing we opened to find the sound does not work making the app utterly useless. Will try to find a way to get money back. ### 1/5 — Sound is not working *2019-11-15, version 2.0* I cannot get the sound to work on this app. Please refund my money or help me get sound. Thank you. ### 1/5 — Won’t unlock all levels *2019-05-26* Paid for the full version but can’t unlock other levels ### 1/5 — Sound does not work! *2019-02-27, version 2.0* Sound does not work ### 1/5 — Narration? *2019-02-20, version 2.0* Got the free app, no sound.

NO NARRATION Sure wish I could get my $$ back! ### 1/5 — Is there sound?i show the sound is on but don’t hear anything *2019-01-27, version 2.0* Is there sound?

I’ve done updates and reboots and so it has to be the app!! ### 1/5 — Sound doesn't work anymore *2018-12-31, version 2.0* The sound worked the first day and has not since! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — My bad *2022-02-22, version 3.0* I just gave a review of two stars ago because I couldn’t access the app I paid for yesterday.It wasn’t the app that had a problem, it was definitely me since I was playing on the old app and saw there was a second app on my phone with access to the full version. So I would like to retract my two star review and give it a big old five! My daughter will be in kindergarten next year and she’s crushing her sight words! ### 5/5 — Sight Words *2016-08-11* Great graphics. The repetition of words enables memory and recognition. The word search and memory game add more challenges. Cute learning game that I would purchase for my grandchildren / to play alone or with me. ### 5/5 — It's *2016-05-14, version 2.0* Grrrrrrreat! ### 5/5 — Helped struggling reader *2016-05-13* This was great for my 6 year granddaughter who really struggles with reading. It takes her about 25 minutes to work through each level and by the end she can identify all the words correctly. The variety of activities helps keep her engaged. ### 5/5 — Learn words *2016-05-13, version 2.0* Grandkids enjoy playing. Thx for the update ### 5/5 — Tiger *2016-05-11, version 2.0* The app is helping my girl learn to read by seeing and hearing common words ### 5/5 — Very good word recognition helper *2016-05-10* My daughter has learned many new words using this program. It introduces common words in small groups and then reinforces learning by repeatedly using the word in different activities. These words are perfect for the kindergarten early readers. ### 5/5 — Great for early reader *2016-03-04* My 4 years old early reader starting reading fluently within days after she started playing with this app. ### 5/5 — Great early reading app *2015-03-06* This is a great early reading app. We have had it for several months, and our kindergartner has learned quite a few words and still enjoys the app. Our four year old also has taken a bit of an interest in it and has caught on to how it works. The updates on the latest version that allow unlocking the lessons and let parents see the word lists is very helpful. This is perfect for anyone working on sight words! ### 5/5 — Helpful *2015-02-25, version 1.1* Excellent balance of learning and fun for kids --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
